neural monitoring brain testify against you. As neuroscientists decipher the workings of the brain, new questions will be raised about decoding memories, ascertaining intentions and defusing criminal behaviour. What if neuro-evidence is invited into the courtroom? What if brain fMRIs will be used against you in a court of law. How will intentions be distinguished from actions. Will you be conviced of criminal behavior by merely having or reflecting but not acting on an intent.
